Ive been sipping on some oolong tea from your site and it’s been incredible! Even though I don’t have a full-on table set, I’ve had a little miniature tea maker kind of like a gaiwan that I’m happy to be able to put to good use. I may not have a full on sit down session, but enjoying nice tea while painting miniatures is quickly becoming a favourite weekend pastime in the cold winter months. Much love and can’t wait to see what you do next 🙏

I’m saving up to get the full set and the teas when they are back in stock! Do you typically drink all the steeps (except the first of course) in one sitting? Or is it spread out throughout the day?

Here's a question; is there any type of tasseomancy, or tea reading, done in China or is that a purely Western practice? I know the closest to it would be reading the coffee grounds, done in various parts of the Middle East, and I know there was cultural mingling for centuries along the Silk Road.

你好, 我叫格雷迪, 我是美国人可是我说有一点儿汉语, I just discovered your channel yesterday and I’m already hooked, I’m saving a little money and I’m going to get the travel tea set! I love the educational side of your channel and how you not only go over the culinary side of it but also practice it as a form of meditation. Thank you for all of your help getting me prepared for my future cha sessions!

I make a Red Rose tea bag and add sugar every morning bc I work 5-2:30 so I don’t have time to actually brew tea, but if I had this set up what would be a similar flavor to the classic western “black” tea
@3lvyn6 ай бұрын
Red tea! I think Jesse has some videos on this too, so you can get some specific red tea examples 😊
@cassiablack10945 ай бұрын
You can also just get black loose-leaf tea like Darjeeling or Ceylon (the bigger the leaf, the better) and brew it in large quantities with small steeps. Works just fine, although you’ll want to brew for only about ten seconds since the leaves are finer.

How do you keep the water hot between steeps?
@cassiablack10945 ай бұрын
I suggest a good electric kettle, many have a “keep warm” function. You could also leave one boiling on the stove if you’re drinking tea that steeps at a high temp.

@cassiablack10945 ай бұрын
You pour out the first steep in gong fu tea making (it rinses any dust off leaves and tea equipment, removes about half the caffeine so you can drink more tea, and allows the leaves time to open) and to make it more fun, you “feed” the first steep to your tea pet and “raise” them. You could just dump it down the drain if you don’t have one.

I do a basic version of this setup with a gaiwan, a pot to boil water and a bunch of mugs. A basic gaiwan should be pretty cheap to buy but even without that maybe you could do it with another mug and a saucer or something?
@paintballercali3 ай бұрын
@@upsidedownbagofflour697 hwy thanks! What I ended up doing was just two mugs and a wire mesh strainer I had. I just put the tea in one mug poor water from my kettle into it. Once steeped I transfer it to my drinking mug using the strainer to keep the leaves in the first mug. But I can definitely see using a small saucer.

Why is there so much spilling and dripping in the Chinese tea tradition? Great if you have shaky hands but I prefer not to spill when I make a drink. Can you please explain? Thank you tea man great videos
@jackmahoney10015 ай бұрын
I’m by no means a Gong Fu expert by any means, but due to tea being being very clean and hot, there’s little hygienic reason NOT to spill, as it’s mostly sterile. I won’t try to guess the cultural reasons behind, from a practical standpoint, that might explain something
